Frequently asked questions

By purchasing one of my paper sewing patterns you will receive the garment design as a full-scale paper sheet (A0). Choose your size according to the size chart provided in the tutorial (above) and cut out each pattern piece of the garment. 

Choose any fabric you like which corresponds with the fabric recommendation in the tutorial and start with your new sewing project from the comfort of your home.

**Please note** the paper sewing pattern does not include a printed tutorial. The tutorial is provided as a pdf file to download for free on this page**

Ups! That shouldn’t happen. However, some phones might be unable to open big PDF files. It can help to switch to a computer or tablet to open and read the tutorial. If this doesn’t help, please reach out to me via hello@makeityoursthelabel.com

The different lines on the sewing pattern mark the different sizes. The more sizes the more confusing a pattern can be. Choose the size according to the size chart (check in the tutorial of your pattern) and mark the line of your size in another color to not get confused while cutting it out. Now take your paper scissors and cut out each pattern piece in your chosen size. 

 

 

Paper Sewing Pattern

With my paper sewing patterns you purchase a full-scale sewing pattern (A0). No printer needed and you can start sewing right away. 

PDF Sewing Pattern

A PDF sewing pattern is a digital sewing pattern (PDF file). After purchasing the file you have to print out the pattern at home (in A4 or US Letter size). Once its printed you have to assemble the pattern together according to the pattern overview using paper scissors and tape to make it a full-scale paper pattern.
